Commentary on Genesis 1.26 and 11.7  [2 pages]
by John Schoenheit, Mark Graeser, and John Lynn rated at 1.6 (7 votes so far)

This use of the plural is for amplification, and is called a "plural of majesty" or a "plural of emphasis," and is used for intensification (see note on Gen. 1:1). Many Hebrew scholars identify this use of "us" as the use of the plural of majesty or plural of emphasis, and we believe this also. Used with permission from biblicalunitarian.com
